Wondering what to do with all of that left over chocolate from Valentine’s Day? I’m not, because I ate all mine, and they aren’t in Japan either, where they held a big contest for robots with chocolate box exteriors.

This is obviously a club that has WAY too much fun building robots to take themselves seriously! These little guys are cool!
